Interesting. I have proposed an aproach for the individual.One cannot do this without some type of example. I have made obsevations that can be used to argue this standpoint. Many observation as such have been made by others without this response.
Aparently I did a good job since I am not for or against the basis for the topic.
If ya want it homogenized:
Is a theory science in the first place?
Argue that a theory is best taught in a theory class.
Give examples of how theories have led science down the wrong path in the past to illustrate the non scientific nature of theories in the first place. There have been far more bad theories than good ones.
Show how many people believe in the theory of evolution and point out that scientifically, belief without fact is religion not science. Attempt to show a line has been crossed.
A closing statement such as:
Science deals in facts- theories are not facts hence theories are not science.

Re: Enough on the one item
That might be a good idea.
